Because of the "Russian threat"
I mean the key goal here is for EUcuckolds to get rid of their Cold-War era museum pieces as zakat to Ukrani, increase defense budget to deal with the (for this purpose) 10 foot Russian and buy spanking new military hardware from US or domestic companies, hell even S Korea is a contender

Germany for example had an ass-tier airforce thanks to an anaemic defense budget, after large donations to Ukraine putting Karan to shame, they are now getting F35
Germany got the go-ahead to buy F-35 fighter jets produced by U.S. defence giant Lockheed Martin as part of military procurement projects worth 13 billion euros ($13.85 billion), Defence Minister Christine Lambrecht said on Wednesday.

Even the poor East European countries are part of this scheme, since Ukranians are cavemen and can only operate Cold War Soviet platforms, Polundistan, Czech and all ex-Iron-Curtain bros are encouraged to send over their MiGs, Sukhois and T72 whatever over to Ukrania, in exchange for some discount maal from Uncle Sam
Remember, you have to make the public forget Article 5 to stop them asking any questions for defense budget being boosted, and so the media walas alternate between "Incompetent Russia" and "Threat from 10 foot Russian!"
